To allow guest access: 1 On the client computer, open System Preferences and click Sharing.

Apple Remote Desktop Nonadministrator Access Remote Desktop can operate in what is referred to as "user mode." User mode is activated when a nonadministrator user opens Remote Desktop to administer Apple Remote Desktop client computers. The administrator of the computer with Remote Desktop installed can choose which features and tasks are available to nonadministrator users. Limiting Features in the Administrator Application User mode is a great way to delegate administrative tasks, or give users only the features of Remote Desktop that they really use. For example, you might not allow nonadministrators to copy or delete files, but you may want them to be able to observe client screens and send messages to client users. You can choose to allow nonadministrators to:  Observe, control, and share screens  Lock and unlock screens  Send text messages and chat  Sleep and wake client computers  Log out users  Restart, shut down, and power on computers  Open or quit files and applications  Rename computers  Generate reports and software searches  Copy items, delete items, and empty the Trash  Create Apple Remote Desktop custom client installers  Upgrade clients and change client settings  Install packages  Set the client computer's startup volume  Set the client's data reporting policy Chapter 5 Understanding and Controlling Access Privileges 73
